Winpopup.exe error

[reggert32]

Hello,

 

I have been using visual pinball for a long time now, but this pinup-popper and pup-packs is relatively new for me.

It was working before, i use only a single screen desktop, but lately it has been acting up.

 

When i start a table with a pup-pack, directly a window pops up with an error message. It says "can't find winpopup.exe etc etc.". Winpopup.exe is in it's original location where it was always located.

 

I have tried visual pinball x 10.6, 10.7 and even the latest 10.71. In all of them the same problem occurs. I have reinstalled pinup popper, reset all settings to defaults. I followed some instruction videos on youtube. Nothing seems to help. I tried to run winpopup.exe in windows xp, windows 7 and windows 8 compatibility. I tried to run winpopup.exe as administrator. Nothing changes. And i also whitelisted all of the popup, visual pinball folders and their respective executables in my anti-virus. Just to make sure that is not in the way.

 

Can anybody help me with this ?

Oh, and when this error pops up, i can still hear the audio from the videos as if they are still running in the background.

 

Best regards,
